Sylvia's Bridal Sampler

Have a few more blocks finished- was going to sew yesterday but couldn't read the sizes of squares to cut ; )

I had my cataract surgery on Wed. and things aren't very clear yet. Ran into some problems so will take longer to heal. I am having sewing with drawal since I haven't touched my machine in over a week. Also had a graduation- my last GD graduated from high school.

Have been looking at the quilts in the Blogger's Quilt Festival- there are some beauties there. I have gotten lots of ideas. Happy sewing and hope you are including the tornado victims in your prayers. BB

Blogger Quilt Festival

I would like to enter my Jewel Box Quilt in the Bloggers Quilt Festival. I love this quilt. It is made of all 30's fabric. I exchanged several blocks in a swap to get a better variety of fabric. It was quilted by my daughter.

Finished Table Topper

This yo-yo table topper was another project CBQ and I did while she was visiting. She made hers into a runner and I did the topper. I was never a fan of yo-yos but the plastic yo-yo maker sure helps. These didn't take long to do. I have a friend who is doing a quilt. Now I have to get busy and make some blocks for Sylvia's Bridal sampler.

Trunk Shows

Sorry I haven't been posting but have been busy. Had Drs. appointments and got some news I didn't like. I need cataract surgery and told I should visit a heart doctor but yesterday was a fun day. Went to 2 trunk shows. The first was by 2 ladies in our community that dress up as older ladies and show their antique and other quilts. They are very comical and enjoyed their show. The second one by Kathleen Morehead-Johnson. She had a workshop today-doing a Kalidiscope quilt using Ricky Timms method. Her quilts at the trunk show were very pretty. I couldn't attend her workshop. Hope you all have a very happy Mother's Day.
